During one of the most chaotic and political Eurovisions ever, Klein took to Instagram and posted a video of dogs dancing to Baha Men’s song Who Let The Dogs Out.
Klein, 26, shared the montage clip to his 1.3million followers, after it was revealed Swedish cops are investigating an allegation of intimidation made by a female member of Eurovision’s production crew.
The Netherlands Songfestival has now defended Klein and said he “repeatedly indicated” he did not want to be filmed and that he “did not touch the camera woman”.
Last night’s competition was won by Switzerland with singer Nemo’s operatic and athletic performance stunning viewers.
Nemo suffered an embarrassing fail seconds after winning the singing show.
The performer, who triumphed with operatic track The Code, claimed the prize but then switfly dropped the glass trophy on stage.
The hefty glass statue slammed onto the hard stage floor with the BBC’s Graham Norton heard saying moments earlie: “Don’t break the trophy!”
The UK’s Olly Alexander came a disappointing 18th and was awarded a humiliating “null points” by the jury.
Viewers were also left begging one act to put their clothes on after they appeared naked on stage.
Thrown out
Dutch Eurovision act Joost Klein was thrown out of the competition today.
